While I was in sunny Phoenix I got a text for a working fire not far from home in Colorado.  I sent it to my wife Rachel and like a good fire buff she ventured out in the wind and snow to capture it.  Here's her first shot walking up...

She arrived right after the transition from offensive to defensive strategy and a withdraw order...

Last one showing some of the damage.  After the master streams flowed for a few minutes they got a good knock and transitioned back to offensive.  Only minor extension out of the garage / attic was discovered in the home.

Nice shots. Looks like one of those days that most of the crew doesn't mind having bunkers on...

 

Thanks for sharing.

Kudos to Rachel. She did a great job, but did she have trouble getting through all those spectators?
